I went around buying all the skills for my characters, so I can switch my build for the guild. But know I have no skill points. So I was just thinking, maybe we should be able to sell some of our un-used skills for skill points. So if there is a skill you don't want, go to hte skill trader and trade it for a skill point (+1k).

Can't you keep getting skill points with level ups?

Also, a fair amount of skills are given as quest rewards, so if you bought them... well... tsk tsk. :P

Yes, you can keep getting skill points after leveling up. But the thing about using them is the same as anything else you do in this game - gotta think about it and use them wisely. Because, to be quite honest, there's several skills that are not worth the energy it takes to use them.

why even bother with skill points then?

next time dont just grab skills at random.

wait until you actually need them to get them.

there is faction to unlock them

Making skill points refundable kind of defeats the point of having skill points. Because, you'd really only ever need 7 plus a handful to capture the elites you want.

Well if he's playing in PvE then faction won't help him there, that's if he's a PvE only...

And if they used your rule, then you could unlock all the skills quite easily, by just reusing one skill over and over again until you got them all (it'd cost money, but that's part of it anyway).

I could unlock every skill in the game as long as I aquired one skill and did the profession quests in the desert and got to ember light camp. Well maybe not the elites, but I'd have nothing else for faction anyway.

It's pointless these days, skills are supposedly easier to get, someone's gonna get pissed off and well...ya...same as attribute refunds. That system could be easily exploited by the rich. (Even semi-rich)
